Hi guys!! If someone could please help me with this request I would be forever grateful. Could you please photoshop me into a photo with these two girls? Or them into the photo with me?

I'm sure somebody will come along and give this a try (I don't have time right now), but it's going to look fake for two reasons:
  1. The photo of your two friends is a close-up taken from above, but the photo of you is taken from a farther distance and the angle is more straight-on. The points of view are mismatched and won't look very convincing in a composite.
  2. In the image of your friends, the light (daylight) comes from the top-right and the shadows are on the left. But on you, the late-afternoon light is coming directly from the side and the shadows are on the right—the opposite direction. That's another mismatch. We could always flip one of the images to make it a mirror-image and reverse the lighting, but since you all know each other you will probably notice that your faces aren't quite right because of the mirror-image flip.
Nice photos, though.

I agree with all of Rich54's comments, but I went ahead and tried to make a composite that might work to show the three of you together. My caveat is that I didn't spend as much time on it that it needed and I'm nowhere nearly proficient enough to make it look completely realistic.

@Rich54 made some realistic and prophetic observations, which made the job more challenging, hence more motivating to attempt. Here is one try.

Nice one, @Argos. I flipped the image of the two girls too, and noticed that I also had to invert the Rayban wording on the glasses of the girl on left.
